Well done on the STS Jan.

Sounds as though you have your hands full today! Good luck, I know kids aren't easy and you will have earned that visit from Mr Smirnoff later!

 

[JanD]

HaHa ... tbh they've been no trouble. It feels quite natural - probably because I had 3 little'uns my self - albeit 20-odd years ago!

They're in bed tho not asleep but I think I can still invite Mr S to join in the fun xxx

 

[summergurl]

Enjoy!!!!!!! x

Bed

Tea - Smoked river cobbler & salad with vlf salad cream

Work - smoked river cobbler & boiled eggs.

Not doing the 3 days pure protein this week. Just having that at work instead. Feel as though I need some fruit and veg. xx

 

[summergurl]

Looking good mrs! Love my veg and salad it is hard to go without it for a while ain't it! Xxx

 

[JanD]

Yeah - especially as it didn't seem to work that well last week, not worth going without xx

 

[JanD]

4.30am ... 4 squares choc & 2 quality street x

 

[summergurl]

MrsD! Step away from the chocolate! :giggle: ........ still, i bet it tasted handsome!! lol

 

[Scotsmist]

I would miss my fruit and veg as well Jan, so can understand..it is nice having the losses, but if you are craving something, no point as we all have to live lives I suppose, if that makes sense!

River cobbler twice!! I WILL TRY THIS YET!!

I am living off veggies these days..aahha..wonder why! But, love it.

Have a good weekend

 

[JanD]

I wish it had ended at just that bit of chocolate

I have no idea what happened but the floodgates opened this morning and I ate and ate and ate from getting to Mum's at 7.15am to going to bed at home at 9.45am

Not sure I can even remember everything but I'll try ....

2 mini meringues - one with spray cream.
A spray of cream (yes straight into my mouth, we've ALL done it!!! )
A cream biscuit and 2 half coated cookies
A piece of toast with clover
A 154g bar of dairy milk
Pkt Walker's cheese & onion
A mini magnum
A Galaxy caramel mini ice cream thing (2 bites big)
3 bourbon
3 custard creams
2 pieces of toast with spread on both and cheese as well on one
An individual pot of rice pudding



I'm not entirely sure it's all over but I'm starting a different post as a new start from when I got up this afternoon. xx

Friday 6th August

Bed all day

Tea - Pork steaks (2) & salad with vlf salad cream

Mum's - some cooked chicken, a very small square of cheese and a nectarine.

Work - Pork steaks (2) and boiled eggs.

I'm going to my son's straight from work in the morning and staying till monday to mind their dogs. I have my food in the car (granola, soup and a couple of pouch meals - as well as my wine ) but I can't say I'm feeling very confident it'll be a 'good' weekend. Dunno what's up with me.

WI will be tuesday this week as I'm not at home monday morning.

I'm guessing it'll be a very quiet weekend round here with Mary & Tanya away and Iris having cut down greatly on Mini-time AND a busy weekend planned. So hope you all have a great one xx

Edit .. 5.30am Go Ahead yoghurt break pack and a quality street x

 

[MiniB]

Hi Jan, I'm still here!!

Enjoy your dogsitting, sounds as though it will be lovely and peaceful though.

 

[JanD]

Hiya Bev !!

Hope you're having an enjoyable weekend. Yes you're right - at least I'm having a nice peaceful, almost dowhatIlike weekend. DH is coming over for a couple of hours tomorrow is the only interruption. Not a problem in itself, it just means I'll have to clockwatch a little when to me the nicest thing about being alone is doing what you like when you like and not being ruled by the clock .. I'm not complaining though!

Saturday 7th August

Better than yesterday but still not good!

2 pieces of toast at Mum's, both with clover, 1 with jam as well. Small square of cheese (why??!! )

Got to my son's and there's Lurpack in the fridge and peanut butter in the cupboard - therefore it was my duty to have another piece of toast with one of these on each half.

Couldn't sleep ... strange bed, dogs barking intermittently, clock ticking, rain dripping, no curtain on the en suite window - or door, so very bright .... went downstairs about 2pm made a coffee and found (not that I was looking or anything) a tin FULL of caramel kitkats ... I didn't know these existed and they're GEORG!!!!! had 2 AND a pkt of cheese & onion crisps

Finally dropped off around 3.30 I think and woke about 5.30. Could have gone back to sleep but didn't want to risk not sleeping tonight so came down. I haven't felt like anything - which is good - since I came down tho one of the dogs has to have a tablet wrapped in cheese ... who can cut a tiny bit of cheese without a bit falling into their mouths????

I could when LTing!!

I think I'm having a 'Look what we Found' pouch of Chilli for my tea - I AM having some wine .... I have absolutely no qualms about drinking alone ... unfortunately xx
